Apparently... In Training for the ALCAN

Been a wet spring... and the early summer looks to be maintaining the habit.

Raining... Raining... and still Raining... Our Fifth Wheel is parked three miles of mud, from the pavement... too much gooey crud to even think about trying to get my Raider out for a lovely ride... IN THE RAIN!... Oh, how I long for the lung choking... eye burning dust of riding the Drags! :o)

Hard to get much work done... outside... when you have to wade 'round in nearly ankle deep mud... I wonder if my dislike for mud comes from having been raised up in the desert?... where most of the mud we ever saw was in pictures of somewhere else?

I can remember, actually being IN mud... three, maybe four times in my whole life before moving back to Colorado... And only once, was in Arizona... I can remember being in mud so thick and deep an M-60 tank... and the M-88 retriever trying to pull it out, were both stuck...

I remember... being in mud so grasping... I dislocated my hip... trying to pull my foot out!

Right now... I do believe... If I tried to drag the Eagle out of our current parking spot... I'd leave the axles behind! :o) ... either that... or the Truck would simply dig itself in so deep, I'd have to convert it to a yard ornament!

I hate... MUD! :o)

Take Good Care

Sand vs Clay... maybe you should take up pottery. :)
